About our coloured bath resurfacing in Stainton Grove
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We’re often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Stainton Grove: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace in Stainton Grove?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Work done at your home or business
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- A fixed quote before booking
Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
- Items cracked right through
- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Landlords, agents and businesses in Stainton Grove
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stainton Grove as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What affects the price in Stainton Grove
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire suite
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DL12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
